Starks, Wyoming

Starks, Wyoming is a town in Goshen County, Wyoming, United States. It was founded in 1866 during Red Cloud's War by Chayton Black and Billy Holme after a settler wagon left Fort Laramie and began building a town center along the Bozeman Trail, and the town center expanded into a small town. The town was settled by recent arrivals from Fort Laramie, and the town held off attacks from Red Cloud and Crazy Horse's Sioux warriors with assistance from US Army dragoons from the fort.
